be enforced until Sunday May 3, 2015. Large scale looting (known as
"Purge") at the Mondawmin Mall located in the Gwynns Falls and Liberty
Heights Road area. This looting was promulgated by a vast amount of

m

another "purge" to be effected at the Security Square Mall located at

■

■6901 Security Boulevard, Windsor Mill, Maryland. This mall is located
approximately one mile from the Baltimore Field Office. Due to the
proximity of this mall to the field office, SAC Baltimore has directed

assist in perimeter security for the field office.
